Intro:  G Am D7 Am D7 G   

G                 G6              G7M                G6   
I know I stand in line, until you think you have the time   
            Am7          D7   Am   D7   
To spend an evening with me   
    Am7            D7               Am7                     D7   
And if we go some place to dance, I know that there's a chance   
             G               G6    G7M G6   
You won't be leaving with me   

    G7          
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place   
           C             Eb   
And have a drink or two   
    Am7           D7               Am7               D7      
And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid   
         G         G6   G7M  G6   
Like: "I love you"   
      
      G7   
I can see it in your eyes, that you despise the same old lies   
               C   
You heard the night before   
     A7                     
And though it's just a line to you, for me it's true   
                     D7   
It never seemed so right before   
  G              G6                G7M            G6   
I practice every day to find some clever lines to say   
            Am7                 D7   Am7  D7   
To make the meaning come through   
    am7               D7             Am7           D7   
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late   
         G            G6   G7M   G6    
And I'm alone with you   
    G7                                     
The time is right your perfume fills my head, the stars get red   
           C              Eb   
And oh the night's so blue   
    Am7            D7              Am7              D7      
And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid   
         G       G6   G7M   G6   
Like: "I love you"
